I remember seeing the Hungry Like the Wolf video premiere on tv in 1982...I was like 4/5, but it came on after Michael Jackson's Beat It video.

Crazily enough, where I lived, we didn't get MTv until the early 90s. We had to watch videos on USA channel's "Night Flight", and Friday Night Videos"!

Rio
The Chauffeur
Friends of Mine
Planet Earth
Save a Prayer
Tel Aviv

I went to a DD concert last year and they played Friends of Mine, and on the big screen behind them there was a montage of horror film footage playing. Anyhow they don’t play that song live often and it was great. I found some footage:

When they used to play those Second Life montages at their shows a few years back, my avatars were in them!

That’s awesome!! Which one was yours?

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 5 years ago

I'd have to search for the Reflex live, I know my avatar is on that one. It's a huge werewolf, the footage they used was filmed just by a fan at their DDU events back in 2011.

Almost exactly the same for me, except I'd switch Planet Earth for Save a Prayer.

I still remember when I saw the uncensored version of Girls on Film for the first time. We had to take what we could get before the internet!

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

Indeed! I got into them in the 90s, their heyday was a little before my time. They used to play A View to a Kill to infinity on VH1 Europe.

Skin Trade never got enough love, I've grown to like it since.

[–] seagal72 (2011) 4 years ago

It's my favourite DD track (and the greatest song that Prince never sang)

reply

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 4 years ago

Yeah, they were really into Prince when that was written, I think most artists of the time were.

The Reflex
(Reach Up For The) Sunrise
Ordinary World

I could go on, but I'd just end up listing everything they're recorded.

reply

[–] NotoriousRio (12927) 4 years ago

I loved The Reflex when it was No.1 but it's on of those songs I've heard too much.

Two classics from the 90's!

While I haven’t heard tons of their stuff beyond what was played on the radio, I always liked the songs Hungry Like The Wolf and Union of the Snake.
